This amazing video of a woman giving birth in a moving car has gone viral

This incredible footage of an American woman giving birth in a moving car while her partner films has been shared around the world over the last few days - it's been watched over 11 million times.

The four-minute video shows Houston parents-to-be on their way to a birthing centre. However, while still 45 minutes away, the woman realises that they're not going to make it in time.

And what happens next happens so fast, that they don’t even have time to properly pull over.

And then there he is. Her 10lb baby boy.

Her partner remains insanely calm throughout the whole thing (on the outside, at least - for all we know, he's screaming on the inside) and manages to video the whole thing while driving.

He even cracks a joke after it's all over.

We feel like we might have killed him but the new mother is too preoccupied with the new crying life in her hands to be bothered.

She's our new hero.
